This JP157D adds a new level of features to this signature instrument. Now with Petrucci's signature DiMarzio Liquifire and CrunchLab high-output humbuckers, an ebony fingerboard and stainless steel frets, this is a seven-string axe to wield with power.

Accurate intonation, smooth operation and excellent tuning stability highlight the premium Sterling by Music Man designed "Modern Tremolo" featured on this JP157D.

The balanced and toneful African Mahogany body, topped with highly figured Flamed Maple finished in gorgeous high-gloss, adds an air of elegance to any stage.

The JP157D features a beautiful roasted maple neck and ebony fingerboard. The roasting process further enhances the articulation of the Extended Scale notes with a clear, punchy voice.
